In the brilliant sunshine of an autumn day in August, the 500kV Line 3 Project from Quang Trach (Quang Binh) to Pho Noi (Hung Yen) was officially inaugurated, doubling the joy of national triumph on the joyful day leading up to the National Day on September 2. The power line 3 from here has been running smoothly across regions, carrying the belief and pride of the great solidarity strength of the entire Vietnamese people, and also carrying the aspirations of "reaching high and flying far" in the journey of building the country!
Because “the electric currents never turn off”!
More than 2.5 million m3 of soil, 705,000 m3 of concrete, 209,000 tons of steel, 503 spans with nearly 14,000 km of various conductors... are the "huge" numbers that General Director of Vietnam Electricity Group Nguyen Anh Tuan announced at the inauguration ceremony of the 500kV circuit 3 line. According to Mr. Tuan, this amount of work will take 3-4 years to complete, so when implemented, the 6-month target was once considered "impossible".
500 kV line 3 project passes through Hau Loc district.
For more than 210 days and nights, over 5,000 working hours, tens of thousands of cadres, engineers and workers have worked tirelessly and enthusiastically with the spirit of "only working, no back-talking", "overcoming the sun, overcoming the rain, not losing to the storm", working "3 shifts, 4 shifts", "eating quickly, sleeping urgently" to bring the project to the finish line on time.
According to the National Power Transmission Corporation, in addition to the difficulty of limited time, the project also encountered countless other obstacles, such as difficulties in mechanisms and procedures; difficulties in mobilizing a large amount of specialized machinery and construction equipment along the entire route; difficulties in mobilizing highly skilled and technical forces to construct poles and pull wires. Along with that, many construction locations had to be built on steep hills, the road to the pole foundations was difficult, especially when it rained, the road was steep and slippery, the construction site was not favorable. At the same time, the construction conditions in the North were extremely unfavorable, sometimes with cold drizzle, sometimes with hot sun like a "fire pan", sometimes with storms and thunderstorms. There were times when the construction progress seemed impossible to complete.

Overcoming countless challenges, with total strength, with the spirit of "only talking about doing, not thinking about retreating", "standing shoulder to shoulder", today, the project has officially opened, with the capacity to transmit up to 34 billion kWh of electricity to the North in the coming days.
As one of the contractors undertaking a huge amount of work for the 500kV line 3, present at the "happy day" of the country at the Thanh Hoa 500kV Transformer Station and connection point, Mr. Le The Hanh, Director of Phuong Hanh Company Limited happily shared: "The inauguration ceremony of this project, along with the common joy, is also a source of pride for us because of our special efforts for a special project. We participated in 6 bidding packages of 3/4 project components: Quynh Luu - Thanh Hoa, Nam Dinh 1 Thermal Power Plant - Thanh Hoa and Nam Dinh 1 Thermal Power Plant - Pho Noi, with 94 column foundation positions and 41 anchorages. This is the largest amount of work ever implemented by the company. During the construction period, we mobilized about 500 engineers, skilled technical workers and maximum machinery and equipment to organize all construction phases simultaneously. All 4 packages we constructed were completed early, of which 4 packages were completed on June 29 and 2 packages on August 15, contributing greatly to the project's success today."

Taking on the task of supervising and accepting the 500kV transmission line component project of Nam Dinh 1 Thermal Power Plant - Thanh Hoa, the engineers of Power Transmission Company 1 could not help but be moved when witnessing the moment the project officially put the entire line into operation. Because this success is a testament to the team's tireless efforts during the harsh days and months at the construction site. Deputy head of the power transmission team, Lu Thanh Hung, was moved: "It was really hard, but also no less proud. This is probably the "lifetime" project in the lives of us "electricians". The dedication and sacrifices of the days and nights without rest, have now been shared with the joy of everyone, every family".
It is known that this team has 14 engineers, assigned to supervise and accept from column 48 to 174. "We have followed the route, organized inspections and accepted each project item according to plan. Through the inspection, we promptly discovered shortcomings to request the contractor to handle, ensuring general conditions for the power connection work", Mr. Lu Thanh Hung added.

In his speech at the inauguration ceremony, in addition to recognizing the efforts and hard work of the investor, contractor and construction unit, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh also expressed his gratitude to the people, especially those who gave up their homes, their birthplaces and production land for the project. To complete the 519 km long line, with 1,177 column foundation locations passing through 43 districts and 211 communes in 9 provinces, the compensation and site clearance work has recovered about 1.83 million m2 with more than 5,000 households affected. However, the skillful mass mobilization work in site clearance has brought "sweet fruit", when the whole people unanimously supported, voluntarily relocated, and sacrificed personal interests for the miraculous journey.

In Thanh Hoa, the site clearance work has also been recognized with success beyond the plan. The sacrifice and consensus of the people are the greatest supports for the investor to construct the power line through Thanh Hoa to achieve remarkable progress.
The family of Mr. Nguyen Van Tinh, Chinh Nghia village, Nga Phu commune (Nga Son) is one of the households that agreed to hand over the site early for the investor to deploy the 500kV transmission line of Nam Dinh 1 Thermal Power Plant - Thanh Hoa. The site was completed early, creating conditions for this project to be energized on June 30 - the earliest in the entire 500kV circuit 3 transmission line. Happy to receive the news of the project's completion, Mr. Nguyen Van Tinh shared: "Myself and many households in the village agreed and wholeheartedly supported the project. Today, I am very happy because the joy of the country is partly due to the support of our own people."
Realizing the aspiration of "going first to pave the way"
Officially put into technical operation on the evening of August 27, the 500kV line project, circuit 3, with a double-circuit capacity of 2,500 MW, will bring the total power transmission capacity from the South to the North to 5,000 MW; improve the stability of the power system operation, reduce the risk of overloading and overloading of existing 500kV lines and stations.
The moment of inauguration of the 500 kV line 3 project on the morning of August 29.
The Thanh Hoa 500kV "super high voltage" station and the connection station located in Thieu Hoa are 1 of 3 central transformer stations of the 500kV line 3 from Quang Trach (Quang Binh) to Pho Noi (Hung Yen), along with the 500kV transformer station in Pho Noi (Hung Yen) and Quynh Luu (Nghe An). Mr. Dang Ngoc Hai, station manager of the Thanh Hoa 500kV transformer station, said: "Measuring the system on the morning of August 29, the system is receiving a capacity of 274 MW. According to the National Electricity Dispatch Center (A0), nearly 100 MW was downloaded to 2 220kV transformer stations to regulate electricity for Thanh Hoa; 152 MW was regulated to the North when transferred through the Pho Noi 500kV transformer station".
Thanh Hoa 500kV transformer station is one of the three central transformer stations of the power line.
500kV circuit 3.
Receiving the operation of the Thanh Hoa 500kV Transformer Station, Director of Thanh Hoa Power Transmission Company Lu Thanh Hai, shared: “The operating force of this “super high voltage” station includes 16 people, divided into 3 shifts and 5 teams with strict operating procedures. Before the official operation, the technical force was trained, ensuring high technical expertise to undertake the best operation. The line went into operation, and Thanh Hoa alone has been supplied and regulated with a significant amount of additional power to meet the increasing consumption demand.”
For Thanh Hoa people, perhaps, they do not fully understand the meaning and operation of the project. However, a towering project appearing after just over 6 months of "lightning speed" and miracle, not only shows joy, but also admiration and pride in the achievements of "extraordinary" things. Mr. Trinh Van Long, Trieu Loc commune (Hau Loc), shared: "Following the media, we know that this is a project of national stature. Although we do not fully understand the meaning of the project, looking at the towering columns stretching far and wide through the area, we cannot help but admire the achievements of the electricity industry and the construction forces. We hope that in the coming time, the power source will be more abundant for both production and consumption, limiting the situation of sudden power outages due to overload like in recent years".
The 500kV line circuit 3 from Quang Trach (Quang Binh) to Pho Noi (Hung Yen) officially opened on August 27.
According to calculations by the Northern Electricity Corporation, in the whole region, to meet the needs of attracting foreign investment and developing new industrial zones, the demand for use is about 20,000 MW and can reach 23,500 - 24,000 MW during hot weather. Meanwhile, the current available capacity of all sources in the North is only 17,500 - 17,900 MW. It is estimated that each day, the North will lack 30.9 million kWh and the highest day can reach 50.8 million kWh during extreme weather.
In Thanh Hoa, the demand for electricity is estimated to grow by an average of about 10% per year and is the province with the highest load growth rate in the North. Accordingly, the maximum load capacity can reach about 1,350MW and is forecast to reach 2,150MW by 2025 (due to factories registering an additional 949 MW and 10% due to other needs...). Areas with large, concentrated loads and high growth rates in the coming time are dynamic economic areas such as: Thanh Hoa City - Sam Son City - Quang Xuong; Nghi Son Town - Nong Cong - Nhu Thanh - Nhu Xuan; Bim Son town - Hoang Hoa - Hau Loc - Nga Son... When the 500 kV line 3 comes into operation, it will contribute to "resolving" these difficulties and urgencies, as the General Director of Vietnam Electricity Group affirmed: "The power transmission project plays a particularly important role in improving the stable reserve on the North - Central interface, contributing to supplementing capacity from power sources in the North Central region to the load center in the Northern region".
As stated by the Prime Minister at the inauguration ceremony, high-tech projects, digital transformation applications, especially semiconductor chip production, will certainly need more abundant and high-quality power sources. The success of the project not only demonstrates the aspiration, confidence, and strength of the great national unity bloc, but also draws valuable lessons. These are lessons about leadership and direction, about mobilizing the strength of the political system, the lesson of determination to be self-reliant and the work of information and propaganda to create endogenous strength. These will be lessons that will be multiplied and need to be applied to key national projects in the coming time.
